A charming purchase awaits in this spacious, stonebuilt semi-detached home offering a delightful blend of character and potential. Boasting a generous 3 bedrooms, a loft room accessible by a ladder, and an excellent central location close to all town amenities, this property presents a unique opportunity enjoying elevated distant views to the front across towards Pendle Hill. The interior of this home, deceptive in size, holds exceptional promise for further enhancement, offering 2 sizeable receptions, a fitted rear kitchen, and a large single garage. Ideal for growing families or downsizers, this rare gem exudes warmth and history, having been lovingly cared for by vendors who have called it home for the past 35 years. Just a stone's throw away from shops, schools, and the train station, this period property is a true testament to timeless allure with superb scope for customisation.

Step outside to the retreat of the attractive private lawned garden and patio. The well-maintained garden features established planted borders with shrubs and small trees providing a lovely backdrop for outdoor relaxation. Enclosed by a privacy stone boundary wall and fencing and a side pathway leads to a smaller enclosed rear yard area. At the front of the garden sits a separate large single garage, complete with double opening wood doors, providing secure parking and ample storage space.
